My mom is an excellent cook, and a woman who rarely—if ever—eats prepackaged food. So when she tells you she likes something that comes in a box, I suggest you listen up. Her tip: Beecher’s macaroni and cheese. You can buy it online, but I found it nearby at Smart & Final. (My mom says the Dean & Deluca in Kansas carries it too.)
The box says it serves four, but would you judge a pregnant girl for eating the whole damn thing?
No. You would not.
Did you/do you crave things while pregnant? I have always been firmly on Team Chocolate, but baby has brought with him a desire for gummi bears. Weird.
With both your mom, & Oprah’s seal of approval… HOW can I pass this up??
(never heard of it, and absolutely love Mac & Cheese… must try, however I won’t have an excuse to eat the whole box! Bookmarking now.}
Torrie, you might hate me after you try it. I’m sorry.
You know what’s really good? Putting fresh cheese on top of it when it’s hot. Then again, Dad and I can clear one easily. Also, Mom heard of them when they were on Martha Stewart awhile back. The Martha seal of approval goes a long way in our house.
Mom + Martha = TLA.
Dude, I’m not even preg but I want that mac and cheese now!
I only ate turkey sandwiches (after a decade of vegetarianism), pancakes, fruit, and cereal with whole milk when I was pregnant. Period.
You need to go out and get it. It is life-changing. I would eat it for breakfast if I had another box in the house…
Honey, come visit me in Seattle and we’ll GO to Beecher’s. (But I agree. That mac is crack.)
Oh no. Like there isn’t enough to tempt me in Seattle!
